Orkney is full of prehistoric sights and some of the most inspiring and majestic are shown here: the Ring of Brodgar and the Stones of Stenness: Less than a mile apart they form a prehistoric centre together with Barnhouse, Maes Howe and Unstan (shown in a later video). Brodgar once had 60 stones (27 still standing) set in a wide circle, surrounded by a ditch. It dates from around 2.000 BC. The Stones of Stenness are set in a much smaller circle, 4 of the original 12 from around 2.900 BC still standing. Next it's Maes Howe, guided tour only sold out for a few weeks but if I remember correctly it's forbidden to film in there anyway. Together with Skara Brae (again: see later video) they form a UNESCO World Heritage Sight. Maes Howe is more than 5.000 years old and the best chambered cairn of Northern Europe.
Next stop (after breakfast) is Dounby Click Mill, a cute little mill building probably from the early 1800s.
Going back in time around 1.800 years we see the Broch of Gurness, nothing against Mousa Broch on Shetland but still well worth a visit.
Then we find ourselves at the east coast of Mainland, Orkney, at The Gloup and the Brough of Deerness, a perfect place for drones.

Astounding. Lots of visual impact. Great job Depp.

Magnificent footage Depp.     No doubt about the Gloup and the Brough of Deerness being a drone flyers paradise.  Those 2 locations are ideal for the FPV.  Another great job and a very enjoyable video Depp.  

Another amazing flying, Depp! Well done. Thanks for sharing this with us.

Thank you, Downtown. Would have like to fly through the Gloup but feared about the connection ;-)

You're very welcome Depp.    I hear you about the connection but that location was just begging for a drone to fly through it.

Maybe I should add a cheap analog drone to my repertoire so I won't get mad if I lose it...

The broch or Gurness was a real sceptical-  Nicely captured.

Thanks, yes, a cool place!

Now there's an idea.

You are most welcome, Depp. Happy flying always!

Nicely captured!
